We are a group of Linux novices, experts and enthusiasts from Indianapolis and surrounding areas that enjoy getting together to share ideas and solutions, and to learn about Linux. Meetings are typically held on the first Wednesday of the month. We've setup forums and mailing lists (including a discussion list). We also have an IRC channel, #cinlug on irc.freenode.net. Please register for an account or login if you already have an account.

Presenter: Michael Schultheiss

Mr. Schultheiss will be giving a presentation on KVM. KVM (for Kernel-based
Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for Linux on x86
hardware containing virtualization extensions (Intel VT or AMD-V).
Using KVM, one can run multiple virtual machines running unmodified
Linux or Windows images. Each virtual machine has private virtualized
hardware: a network card, disk, graphics adapter, etc. KVM is open
source software. The kernel component of KVM is included in mainline
Linux, as of 2.6.20. The userspace component of KVM is included in
mainline QEMU, as of 1.3. More information is available athttp://www.linux-kvm.org
